We all like fo choose wat kine clothes we goin wea an how we goin look. Get simple kine truts in da Bible, an if we follow dat we can choose fo wea wat we like, an still yet make Jehovah stay good inside. We go talk story about some of um.
1. Wat goin help us fo choose wat we goin wear an how we goin look?
Da Bible tell us fo “ack da right way . . . dress good, an show respeck fo who [us] wen [we] put on clotheses,” an always look clean so oddas see oua “respeck fo God.” (1 Fo Timoty 2:9, 10) Try tink about: (1) We gotta dress good. Jalike you wen see at meetings wit da local hui, Jehovah’s peopo wear plenny diffren kine clotheses, but wat we wear an how we make oua hair, show respeck fo da God dat we worship. (2) Wen we pick clotheses dat show respeck fo who us, we no goin dress in one way dat make oddas tink da wrong way, o make jalike we tantaran. (3) We show we ack da right way an no jus follow wat stay popular wen come to wat we wear an how we look. (4) How we look always gotta show dat we get respeck fo God, so oddas can see dat we worship da God dass fo real.—1 Fo Da Corint Peopo 10:31.
2. How come we gotta tink about oua braddahs an sistahs wen we choose wat fo wear?
Az true, we can choose wat we like fo wear, but we gotta tink about if wat we look like goin be one problem fo oddas. We no like make anybody come huhu wit us, but we like try “make [dem] come mo strong fo handle all dat. Den dey goin stay good inside too.”—Read um Fo Da Rome Peopo 15:1, 2.
3. How da way we look can make peopo like learn moa about Jehovah?
We always try fo dress good erytime, but even moa wen we go meetings wit da local hui an go field service. We like peopo pay attention to da importan message we bringing dem, an not da way we look. So den, da way we look can make oddas learn moa about God an make da stuff we teach “look real good.”—Fo Titus 2:10.
